Hello again :)
I have resumed my experimets with wol again.
I checked the link speed from the switch web gui. It says "100M Full".

I tried your patch. Just to be sure that I did it correct - here are my 
steps:
cd /
patch < /path/re.phy.patch.20081103
cd /sys/modules/re
make all install
reboot

After reboot I shutdown the machine and try to wake it from another 
computer.
Still WOL does not work.
